The fallowing image was taken at an abandoned prison that was used from 1910 all the way up to the 90's. It's home to some of the most gruesome beatings, and deaths. It also housed minors at one point. Looking back on my photos, they all look fine, except this one. This is the only photo that came out with "orbs". The photo is one of the old guard towers from outside the gate. I'm not claiming anything, just wondered what you guys thought?

Being outside the chances are that it is dust. Real "orbs" were rarely captured before the invention of the digital camera. Early digital cameras were always capturing fake orbs. You need to test your camera out by taking pictures of dust and keep it on file. I have a 6.1 mega pixel Kodak that never gave me any orbs at all until one day when I was at a murder scene and I have three consecutive pictures with orbs. Do I think that they are dust? Probably inconclusive but I don't think so. I noticed maybe a small orb that did not look like dust but I would need to look closer at it.

welcome roush Smile - I have heard too that dust is usually totally round where orbs not complete circular. Though I did notice some of the ones in your picture have some bluish color to them. I am wondering if they may be orbs. I was trying to see if there were any shapes inside the orbs but my computer isn't that great. You should see if you see any shapes like faces in the bluish orbs.
Just curious jerrytalbert are you in law enforcement? Taking pictures of a murder scene must have been hard to do.
